found out that it is Dunning's by the stile - No it is not Dunning's
— it is Ld Camden's. So somebody has discover'd that has
told it to Alderman Clark. After all it is neither Dunning's
alone, nor Ld Camden's alone, but the joint production of them
both. My old friend D. I understand is at it again in a
third letter: I have not seen it: it must be curious if it is
"the former two".
I had more to say - but that y I may not make you
wait a day longer I will put up my letter now —
